It is time to get out and win that unspoken competition you have going with your neighbors over who has the best Christmas Light Display. Fortunately for you, I made this video to show you how to put up Christmas lights without going all “Clark Griswald” up in your crib.

I hope this video comes across well as it is my first full length post in this format. I can tell you that the wind is really bad in much of the video and does distort the audio to the point of annoyance, but there is nothing I can do about that until I invest in some better equipment (which I plan to do very soon). There are also 3 written posts that go along with this video:

Christmas Lights Part 1

Christmas Lights Part 2

Christmas Lights Part 3

The posts and video all work together and should clear up any questions, however, I would be glad to answer any you have: just leave them in the comments below.

This is the final post of a 3-part series on putting up Christmas lights. You can begin by reading part 1here.

Part 3 is all about the reward!
Now that you have your lights up, it is time to enjoy the clean and classy look you have achieved. At this point, you may want to add a wreath to the front door, but remember, keep the clean look…that means, no inflatable waving Santas, or plastic candy-canes littering your yard!

Enjoy!

As you can see, our Christmas Light Display is clean and classy. The spacing is perfect. Putting up Christmas lights this way is not very tough and will turn heads in your neighborhood for sure.
You can buy C9 and C7 Christmas lights cheap here.
